Chapter 1355 The Returnee's Notes 429
As the incense and candles burned out, Xie Ning climbed the stone path to the top of the mountain. The journey was incredibly smooth, and Xie Ning didn't believe that there were no ghosts or monsters in this place.
Perhaps it was truly the blessing received from offering incense just now.
Then Xie Ning bowed three more times in the direction of the statue.
Before coming here, she had already learned about Guibei Mountain from Old Wang, and with the help of some analysis in the book, she was not at a loss when faced with the formation.
There were only three thick pillars connected by iron chains in front of them. Every mountain peak had the same three pillars, but apart from some rust, there was not a trace of any other incantation carvings on the surface of these pillars.
This is because these three pillars are still virtual and have not yet become real.
As Xie Ning approached, he took out a locator and a communicator from his bag. This was a Three Talents Formation formed by taking advantage of the mountain's terrain, representing Heaven, Earth, and Man.
Therefore, to be precise, there is only one pillar on this mountain that can be solidified, and Xie Ning needs to transform that pillar into a human pillar in order to open the real entrance like Xie Li did before, and then enter the inner circle to carry out his mission.
The locator was buried about five meters away from the pillar. There were still many trees growing there, making it impossible to see the sky. Fortunately, the area was spacious enough, otherwise the missile would have blown it to smithereens when it landed.
Xie Ning only issued the notification after the locator was in place.
She couldn't break the formation here, so she wanted to try using technology to pinpoint the location so that future generations wouldn't lose their way.
So she basically buried GPS trackers along the way.
The missiles weren't used to destroy the formation, but rather to find out her location and whether it would change at any moment; if so, things would be troublesome.
After all, she was thinking that once she entered the inner circle, if she encountered a ghost she couldn't defeat, she could rely on external forces.
Glancing at the pillar beside her, just as Xie Ning was thinking about how to repair it, a sudden explosion rang out, creating a crater about one or two meters wide in the direction where she had buried the locator.
Xie Ning looked ahead and saw that apart from a large crater in the ground, there were no other changes around. She breathed a sigh of relief; her guess was correct.
The magnetic field here is strange, and there are also array changes. People who enter it are very likely to lose their way. But some other things are different, especially since she is using purely physical methods.
Since the positioning was correct, Xie Ning began to repair the Zhenzhu pillar and then transform it into a human pillar.
Yang Hong and the others, far away in No Return Town, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the red dot light up on the screen, because they confirmed that Xie Ning was still alive.
Before they knew it, it was already evening. Unlike the chirping of insects and birds in the town of No Return, there was not a single sound of living creature on the mountaintop where Xie Ning was located, except for the sound of the wind.
"Tick-tock—"
Xie Ning watched his blood drip down, and then slowly rise along with the patterns that appeared on the pillar. When the red blood had risen halfway up, Xie Ning's relaxed mood suddenly tightened.
Because the forbidden spell that appeared was incorrect.
She wasn't very familiar with forbidden spells before; she only learned some from Master Fang in the Mirror World, but it was enough to handle things here.
This is not a human pillar, but... an earth pillar.
Xie Ning moved her fingers and immediately stopped the bleeding, but the rising red line did not stop.
Xie Ning turned around when he heard a gust of wind behind him. He saw a door shrouded in purple mist slowly emerging, and the chilling wind was blowing out from inside.
At this moment, Xie Ning suddenly realized that in order to transfer to the human pillar, in addition to other prerequisites, there was fresh human blood, and it had to be the blood of the person who cast the spell.
And her body... really isn't that of a living person...
Now that a new door has appeared, and she only has one chance to manipulate it, Xie Ning glanced around and saw that the path she had taken to go up the mountain was blocked, so she had no choice but to walk through this door.
Then you have to find the exit from inside to get out.
Xie Ning subconsciously gripped the beaded chain on her wrist; in fact, she had found it strange during the divination earlier.
Xie Li was able to come out after going in, and she is quite strong now, so she should have a good chance of coming out as well.
But the divination showed it as a dead end.
Perhaps it was because the doors she and Xie Li opened were not the same.
All the preparations we made before were ultimately undone by unpredictable changes.
